Yui Yokoyama is a member of cutesy Japanese idol group AKB48. And she can probably dropkick you silly. Typically, you probably don’t think of popstars, male or female, being particularly good at wrestling. Then again, you probably don’t typically think about who would be good at wrestling or who wouldn’t. Maybe you do! I really…

Their trousers were…
Today, Sony announced that the PlayStation Portable will cease being released in Japan. That’s nearly ten years after it was first released.

If you’ve got a spare seven minutes to end the day with, here’s a touching love story in which two people are brought together by something a little sweeter than a desire to avenge the murder of a young boy’s parents. The short is called Lichen and, DISCLAIMER, was actually made by a friend of…

Two 12-year-old girls from Waukesha, Wisconsin are facing attempted murder charges following a brutal attack on one of their classmates.

Neal “Koibu” Erickson once played video games for 90 hours straight. Since that obviously wasn’t enough, he recently tried to game for 120 hours straight Some would call this endurance, others would call it madness. Erickson calls it progress. “I feel like if I’m not doing things that are better, or more challenging, I’m not…
PC roguelike…building sim…thingDwarf Fortress has been out since 2006. And it’s about to get its first update in over two years. That’s staying power. Not that people already playing it will be surprised. See, Dwarf Fortress is not your average game. The developers, Bay 12, don’t see it as something that’ll ever be “done”. It’s…
If you visit the Origin homepage right now, this is the first thing you’ll see. And when the bulk of Steam jokes run with the premise of people buying a ton of cheap games that you’ll never play, this ad seems like a clear jab at Steam. Maybe the entire thing seems ludicrous to you,…

Even beloved Frozen can lend itself to the Call of Duty montage style, provided few key changes—namely, adding dubsteb, obnoxious cuts, horns, and silly text. The result of the transformation is hilarious, as this video made by MemeMaster420 shows. I appreciate that it doesn’t just make some bad Doritos joke either—instead, it also incorporates jokes…
YouTube user Freddy Dance has posted what he claims to be footage from a beta for the upcoming Battlefield: Hardline. You know. The Battlefield game with cops in it. This is the second clip to have leaked from the game, the first being an early trailer that was six months old. This is obviously much…
Oculus isn’t the only virtual reality headset in town. Valve has been working on its own VR unit, and t’s come a long way since we first saw it back in 2012. Back then, it was as prototype as a prototype unit could get. Fast forward to 2014 and it’s looking a lot more polished.…
Brock Baker is a man of many voices. In this case 151 of them. Like the dude says, he doesn’t exactly fit the demographic of an actual Pokemon voice actor, so it’s quite the achievement. If you want to see more of Brock’s work, here’s a compilation of Simpsons characters he took a swing at…
When you replace some of the cards in your hand at the start of a Hearthstone match, you expect new cards. What are the chances that you get pretty much the exact same hand back, you think? Well, it happened to at least one guy who goes by the handle Scolarion. Granted, what he gets…
There’s a newMortal Kombat? Cool. I’ve invited a handful of Mortal Kombat fans for a chat about what they’d like to see in the newly-announced Mortal Kombat X. They’re hashing it out below. Note: I’m using this post, in part, to test a new “invitation” system that lets us automatically feature certain people’s comments. The…
Those playing through WildStar, the new science fiction MMO by Carbine Studios, might’ve noticed something a little, err, lively about the way certain character’s butts sway. Spotted this weekend by game critic Rowan Kaiser, it seems the walking animations for the Mordesh (which are space zombies in WildStar) are quite the thing to behold: Here’s…
